I Ran Away From Them and Became an Academy Professor - Chapter 144



144 – Demon Lord (3)

Habir Gadbi.

My real name, my first name.

However, my name at Hestia Academy is Ichle.

If you are looking for Havir, not Ichl, in Hestia, that person was someone you knew in Astria.

And the people I knew during my time in Astria were only a handful of Hestia people, my family, and Astria party members.

Anyway, it didn’t seem like a good situation.

It was not expected who came.

Has your mother visited you by any chance?

I even thought about it, but the possibility of that was remarkably low.

I was with you until a few days ago, but there’s no reason to find it.

But since Astria’s companions came to visit, two of them are now in Hestia, and two of them… No, three of them were actually in prison.

I thought about it before I told the guard.

“Please guide me.”

“Yes, I understand.”

We followed him and headed towards the entrance of the academy.

From behind, I could feel Flora and Kavri looking at me with worried eyes.

◈

My heart races as I approach the entrance.

I started to feel uneasy.

That feeling was exactly right.

“Why are you here…”

“It’s been a while, Havir.”

“… Gaur.”

Gaur Vibtin.

A former colleague from Astria.

The first among us to win the title of S-class adventurer.

In terms of combat power itself, Rebecca was stronger, but although fighting power was the most important for being an S-class, she was an existence that was admired by the people around her as much as she valued leadership, insight, and judgment, not just combat power.

I fell into the abyss in an instant due to the attempted rape, but it was like that at one time.

“It’s been a few years. Let’s shake hands.”

“Didn’t you hear me? I asked why you are here when you should be in prison.”

“…I have something to say about that.”

Gaur said to me with serious eyes.

“Maybe, can we talk just the two of us?”

“… Come in first.”

“Thank you!”

“It’s not because I trust you, it’s because you can’t let criminals roam the streets.”

“I know, but the fact that you talk to me makes me appreciate it.”

I took Gaur and came to the meeting room inside Hestia.

We sat facing each other.

“Tell me.”

“It’s a false name.”

“Are you kidding me?”

Who would believe me if I said it was a false name?

My fever rose as if they knew me as an idiot.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I was so unfair that my words came out in vain.”

“Whoa…”

“Habir.”

“Why?”

“What do you think of me?”

“A rapist f*cking crazy about women.”

“No, I’m talking about me before it happened.”

“…I hate to admit it, but I thought he was a sincere and great guy.”

What do you want to say?

“Do you really think I would have tried to rape a woman? A bar girl, too.”

“So he must have gone to jail.”

“No, I didn’t. It’s true that I was drunk, but I’m not a man with enough self-control to rape.”

Obviously, the day Gaur committed the attempted rape, I absolutely couldn’t believe it at first.

Because I never thought of the Gaur I knew as someone who would forcefully molest a woman he didn’t like.

However, Gaur’s fingerprints came out on the victim woman’s clothes and eyewitness testimony came out one after another, so in the end I had no choice but to believe it.

“So, you never tried to commit rape, and you’re all false?”

“Yes, to be honest, where am I lacking in raping women? If you want to quench your s*xual desire, you can go to a brothel. If you don’t like prostitutes, you can seduce a widow in a bar.”

That’s right.

For an S-class adventurer who was envied by those around him, sleeping with a woman was not very difficult.

“Besides, I’m an S-class adventurer. It’s not that hard to rape just one woman in a bar. But I failed. Didn’t you feel strange here too?”

“…However, how do you explain that your fingerprints came out of her clothes with the detection magic?”

“Yes! My fingerprints were on the clothes! But not on the woman’s body.”

Puzzles were being put together one by one.

There were many strange things about Gaur’s attempted rape, but it ended in a hazy way, so it was impossible to properly confirm it. Eventually, Gaur was arrested and ended, but if everything was false, all those strange things disappeared.

“As an S-ranker, there are many ways to relieve my s*xual desire, but I took the risk of giving up everything and tried to rape a woman in a bar, but even that failed.”

It was strange that I couldn’t feel the strangeness in this sentence.

“…I don’t fully believe in you yet.”

“Thank you for that alone.”

First of all, I raised Gaur’s hand.

“…Are the other party members here?”

“Party member?”

“Yes, I also heard about Seri and Harin in prison. A lot of things seem to have happened after I was taken away.”

“…Yeah, that’s right.”

“However, it’s because the story of the two didn’t come out properly. If you’re here, I’d like to explain it myself.”

“…Okay, I’m with you instead.”

“Of course, I didn’t even think of completely trusting you with words like this.”

“I’ll go to Lii first, I’ll go to Rebecca first.”

“Go to Rebecca.”

“But there is a problem.”

“What is it?”

I told you about Rebecca’s condition.

She told me what happened to her and me, and what condition Rebecca was in.

After hearing Gaur’s words, he said that he was in a state that was difficult to fully understand.

“···Is that so. Havir, you too have lived a very difficult life. After hearing that, I might have been better off in prison. I can’t believe it either. Besides, I honestly don’t understand you, Havir, who takes care of Rebecca even after going through such a thing.”

“Don’t try to understand, because I don’t understand either. It’s just that Rebecca, whose mind has deteriorated, runs out of control and puts the citizens in danger, so she’s doing this because of that one thing. Anyway, Rebecca is in that state, so are you still going to talk about it? “

“Of course. Even if I don’t understand, I want to see her face and say it.”

“…If that’s what you mean.”

Gaur followed me into the mansion.

I went up the stairs and entered the room where Rebecca was.

“Ha, Habir!”

Rebecca always relied only on me, perhaps because her mind was still degenerated and she thought of me as her parent.

I didn’t want to worry too much about it.

“Certainly, not normal. Things will get easier.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

Gaur raised his hand.

Are you saying hello…

Tup.

“What’s up, Havir?”

“…You are not a f*cking gaur.”

The gaur disappeared at my words, then I laughed horribly.

“…You’re a nice guy, how did you know?”
